Chapter 38: Swollen Face

Chapter 38: Swollen face

Translated and Edited by KChandra

When they saw that The Big Mouth had posted on Weibo, everyone felt a little curious. What was the video he released?

The world had no shortage of curious people. As soon as The Big Mouth’s video was put up, some netizens clicked on it

 Then, when they saw the content of the video, they instantly had “F***!” faces.

Unexpectedly someone else actually took a video of that incident. Listening to the tone of The Big Mouth, something seemed wrong? The people who clicked on the video watched on patiently.

Compared to the previous video, this video was much clearer and was taken from the side of both parties. What they did and said was very clear.

Then, everyone saw the following scene. Gongxi Qiao had been trying to help Zheng Lei, who was reluctant to get up. After saying repeatedly how miserable he was, he got up and left, leaving a baffled Gongxi Qiao standing in place, as if he hadn’t figured out why Zheng Lei was kneeling to him.

“Although this is a serious situation, so I shouldn’t say this, looking at Qiao Shao standing in place with a bewildered look, I really think it’s funny that the male god still has such a foolish and meng side.”

“So it seems that the previous video was deliberately planned, deliberately making it impossible to hear what Qiao Shao said and biased to show how miserable Zheng Lei was without missing a word of his speech. The person who took the video before was really in love with Zheng Lei ah.”

“I felt it was strange before, so I’ve been silently waiting. The result is that less than eight hours later, evidence really appeared to slap him in the face. Zheng Lei was really wanting to be popular and went crazy.”

“Hearing Qiao Shao in the video keep questioning Zheng Lei with a concerned tone, and also saying he would pay for his parents’ medical bills or something, I feel sad for him. I wonder what kind of mood he’s in after seeing the video this morning.”

“Passers-by happened to pass by and took a video. Isn’t that normal, what’s so strange? The person filming stood so far away, how could they know exactly what happened.” This was a netizen who firmly spoke for Zheng Lei.

“Ahhhhh, did you see, Master Xi posted a video on his Weibo!”

Xi Qing’s new Weibo post didn’t have a single word, only two videos. One video was Zheng Lei and two young men talking with their heads down outside the parking lot. There was no sound, but from the timing and demeanor of the conversation, they knew each other.

The second video was shortly after Zheng Lei appeared in the parking lot. The two young people also followed him in and hid in the corner. Then after Gongxi Qiao appeared, the two young people took out their cell phones to shoot.

Because the second video was right above the two young men behind them, the two men’s actions were clearly filmed.

“Oh, that blogger in the morning also said he happened to pass by and encountered this incident. I said how lucky he was to encounter this kind of thing. It turned out to be nothing more than some people directing and acting in their own show.”

“Really want to kneel down and beg for help. Who would choose the parking lot? They have no brains. In case there were others in the parking lot, wouldn’t he be too embarrassed?”

“The Great Zheng really played a good game. If someone didn’t prove Qiao Shao’s innocence, Qiao Shao would inexplicably be blamed. How much hatred you have with Qiao Shao, to be so bad?”

“Above, you don’t know. That person doesn’t look as handsome as Qiao Shao, his resources aren’t as good as Qiao Shao, his family isn’t as rich as Qiao Shao, and his ability isn’t as strong as Qiao Shao. That person is so jealous that he’s about to go crazy, so if he doesn’t attack Qiao Shao, who should he attack?”

Many of those who hadn’t had the time to pay attention to the entertainment news were still unaware of the previous video. When they took their lunch break and browsed the news, they saw the news popping up on the major websites. Most of the news headlines were ‘Rich second-generation artist tragically discredited’, ‘Good brothers in the past, but today someone planned to frame his brother in order to get to the top’ and ‘Qiao Shao was framed again, fortunately there is video to testify’.

When the commuters took a look at these headlines, a question mark surfaced in their heads – Qiao Shao was framed again? Then one click on the news, and they were immediately speechless. This Zheng Lei was too shameless. Previously, he caused trouble and was snowed out by his company. As a result, he turned around and framed Gongxi Qiao under the guise of his own pity, but didn’t know that he would be exposed. How shameless did he have to be to do this?

At this moment, how indignant people had felt for Zheng Lei was now how much they hated Zheng Lei’s lies. A wave of netizens were busy apologizing under Gongxi Qiao’s Weibo, and a wave of netizens were busy turning their heads to scold Zheng Lei. The whole network was very lively.

Now, if you were to look at the post that Zheng Lei sent out two hours ago, which was pretending to help Gongxi Qiao and Mi Yue and other people to say good things, it was simply ironic to the extreme.

Zheng Lei V: I did some wrong things. Netizens, please don’t anger my friend. It’s good that he can forgive me.

“The idea that I also comforted him under this Weibo, I want to call myself a fool, I feel like my face is swollen. Zheng Lei, how come you didn’t get a film emperor award? So shameless, still acting so well, stepping on a brother and pretending to be generous, you’re really good.”

“Such consumption of netizens’ sympathy, do your parents know?”

“Hehe, pretending. You’re really disgusting.”

Some attentive netizens also found that Gongxi Qiao hadn’t posted a Weibo message, and even now, after there was evidence to prove his innocence, he didn’t come out to say a word.

Gongxi Qiao’s iron fans worried that Gongxi Qiao was still upset. They ran to Xu Chao or Mi Yue’s Weibo to ask about Gongxi Qiao’s current situation, because those two people had always stood firmly on Gongxi Qiao’s side and were even in the same cast with Gongxi Qiao.

“What is a real buddy? Look at Xu Chao and Mi Yue, and then look at Zheng Lei, it’s a stark contrast.” A netizen came forward and said, “I’m not a fan of Gongxi Qiao, but watching some fans who said they liked him earlier turn their heads and swear at him, suddenly I think he’s a bit sad. There are so many fans who say they like him but do things that hurt him. I really don’t know if he’s lucky or unlucky.”

The comment made some face fans blush. They actually didn’t like Gongxi Qiao that much. They only paid attention to him because of his good looks.

In the eyes of netizens, the big reversal online was all coincidence and divine providence, but in the eyes of insiders, things weren’t so simple.

When Zheng Lei’s trick came to light, many people thought that Gongxi Qiao could only be trapped in vain this time. However, his work team was able to find a video to prove his innocence, and in just half an hour, all major portals reported that Zheng Lei had framed Gongxi Qiao. It seemed that Senhe Entertainment was really trying to promote Gongxi Qiao as their top star.

No wonder Gongxi Qiao wanted to sign with Senhe instead of Ringstar. If it was Ringstar, which had many big names, would they have spent so much effort and networking to reverse the situation for Gongxi Qiao?

Sometimes it was useless for artists to have acting skills without the company’s support. After Gongxi Qiao’s incident, his agent and the entertainment company’s response was seen by people in the circle. The attitude was simply treating him as their own son.

With the company’s strong support, his own ability, and a good style, it wouldn’t make sense for such an artist not to be on fire.

“Xiao Qiao, everyone knows you were wrongly accused.” Several young actors were sitting together to eat a boxed lunch. Mi Yue saw Gongxi Qiao still looked a little sad, she said, “Master Xi is really awesome. In such a short period of time, he actually uploaded two videos.”

If the video released by The Big Mouth proved Gongxi Qiao’s innocence, then the video sent out by Xi Qing demolished Zheng Lei’s conspiracy. These two big slaps battered Zheng Lei’s face. Zheng Lei would never be able to stand up in this life again.

“Thank you for today. I also caused you guys to be scolded,” Gongxi Qiao smiled gratefully at the table with Mi Yue and Xu Chao, “I was too busy shooting in the morning to thank you.”

“What’s the point of being polite between friends? If I were in this situation today, wouldn’t you have stood up for me as well?” Xu Chao waved his hand broadly, “Fortunately, Master Xi was able to use the video as evidence to expose Zheng Lei’s petty thoughts. Otherwise, we would’ve been scolded today for nothing.”

Gongxi Qiao smiled. He didn’t know how Xi Qing got the two videos, but to find them and edit them in such a short time, it was obvious that Xi Qing knew about it soon after it happened.

“That’s right, fortunately Master Xi is powerful,” Mi Yue finished wiping her mouth and slapped the table with gusto.

“In this circle, if you don’t get cheated a few times, if you don’t get scolded a few times, if you don’t meet a few scum, you’ll be embarrassed to say you’re in the entertainment industry. Xiao Qiao, cheer up. It’s good to recognize that a person is scum early on.”

With regard to the friendship between Gongxi Qiao and Zheng Lei, Mi Yue was aware of it. When she was on the set of ‘Immortal Mountain Courtyard’, Gongxi Qiao often accompanied Zheng Lei in his scenes, and even Director Zhu personally praised the two for their diligence and good attitude – who knew that Zheng Lei would now use such dirty tricks?

She stood firmly on Gongxi Qiao’s side today, firstly because she saw Gongxi Qiao as particularly agreeable, and secondly because of the Xi family. Her grandmother’s family was a distant relative of the Xi family and had done some lucrative business with the Xi family over the years, and Gongxi Qiao and Master Xi were good brothers. So whether from the point of view of personal feelings or profits, she would be on Gongxi Qiao’s side today.

Probably, even if her family didn’t have the slightest relationship with the Xi family and Gongxi Qiao and Xi Qing weren’t friends, she wouldn’t hesitate to stand up for him. She had been in the circle for three or four years and had seen all kinds of male artists, but Gongxi Qiao was definitely the best looking and the best behaved. She really couldn’t bear to see him being discredited inexplicably.

It was probably because of the sentimental side of being a woman. Mi Yue thought of this and smiled, feeling that her imagination was a bit big and she was thinking a bit far ahead.

“You guys eat. I don’t have any scenes this afternoon. I have to do an interview with a magazine.” Mi Yue looked at the time and hurriedly got up, “See you tomorrow.”

“Oh, bye,” Xu Chao stared blankly at Mi Yue’s hurried back, suspecting that the other party hadn’t even heard his goodbye just now. Shrugging, he turned his head to look at Gongxi Qiao who was drinking seaweed soup with his head down, “Junior Brother, this can’t just end so easily. The guy named Zheng is so shameless, we have to teach him a lesson.”

Gongxi Qiao put down his bowl, wiped his mouth clean, and said with a smile, “I know.”

Seeing his gentle smile, Xu Chao sighed helplessly. Seeing him like this, he didn’t look like he really knew it.

After 3pm, Gongxi Qiao finished filming a set of scenes and sent out a post from his phone.

Gongxi Qiao V: Let’s not mention the past. I just hope everyone is well.

Once this post came out, the crowd of onlookers had mixed feelings. This breezy sentence might seem calm, but revealed a sense of loss and regret.

Many Qiao fans saw this Weibo post and were heartbroken and came out to comfort Gongxi Qiao, telling him not to feel too bad.

Xi Qing V: Pats head. //@Gongxi Qiao: Let’s not mention the past. I just hope everyone is well.

“I think I smell the scent of an iron man’s softness.”

“You’re done above, where is Master Xi an iron man, he’s obviously a cold president, and what the hell is an iron man’s softness?”

“Master Xi’s big brother power is simply bursting. Although there are only two words plus a period, inexplicably there is a kind of big brother shielding little brother feeling, so meng.”

“Crying from cuteness, the overbearing president and elegant young master and all that, this picture is too beautiful, I dare not look.”

“What are you talking about above, why can’t I understand?”

Xi Qing had several angles of the surveillance video in his hand, and it was these surveillance videos that made him understand why Gongxi Qiao told him not to worry before, because he found that Gongxi Qiao’s assistant was also hiding in a corner filming.

The video he made public was a relatively clear one that didn’t capture Gongxi Qiao’s assistant. Although he didn’t know anything about the entertainment industry, he knew the kind of video that would make a slap in the face hurt more.

He knew that Gongxi Qiao must not be as innocent and harmless as he appeared to be, because how could a truly innocent and harmless person skip class and come out to fight in high school? But when he saw Gongxi Qiao’s unobtrusive “killing” tactics, Xi Qing still felt a strange sense of pride, although even he himself felt this pride came strangely.

There was something really adorable about …… Being so contradictory.

Realizing that he was thinking something strange, Xi Qing’s hand shook, and he wrote his name crookedly on the document he signed.

“Boss?” Special Assistant Gou, who was waiting for the boss to sign, saw that Xi Qing looked a little off. He looked at Xi Qing in disbelief. Could it be that lack of sleep had led to poor mental health?

Handing the signed document to Special Assistant Gou, Xi Qing looked up and said, “What did Xing Entertainment say?”

“Ah?” Special Assistant Gou cupped the document and froze for a moment before reacting to what the boss said, “The boss of Xing Entertainment has promised to solve the problem perfectly as soon as possible.”

“That’s good,” Xi Qing frowned slightly, “Gongxi Qiao is the face of our subsidiary, I don’t want anyone to smear him, such tactics must be banned.”

“I understand.” Special Assistant Gou nodded his head and silently thought, last year a certain product spokesperson of theirs was defamed, it seemed that their boss didn’t even mention this matter.

At 4:30 p.m., Xing Entertainment issued an official apology announcement.

“The company is deeply sorry for the inconvenience caused by its artist Zheng Lei. Previously, Zheng Lei was suspended from work by the company for taking advertising endorsements privately against the company’s rules. We did not expect that it would bring a series of unnecessary misunderstandings. The company once again expresses its sincere apologies and hopes that you can accept our apologies.”

Senhe Entertainment and Gongxi Qiao’s Weibo were also tagged in this brief announcement, with a very humble gesture.

“So Zheng Lei was snowed out because he secretly took advertising endorsements, and Gongxi Qiao has nothing to do with it? I feel sorry for the innocent Gongxi Qiao.”

“Xing Entertainment has a good attitude, but it’s a pity that it was taken advantage of by its own artists.”

“This is the third slap Zheng Lei received today, I feel pain for his face.”

“Heh heh, it turns out that the reason for being snowed out is that he made trouble for himself, which he can still blame on Gongxi Qiao. No wonder that in the video released by The Big Mouth, when Zheng Lei mentioned the snowing out, Gongxi Qiao’s expression was so bewildered, because he had no idea what had happened.”

“As a rich second generation, Gongxi Qiao is really too miserable. He obviously didn’t bully people with his power, but was beaten down. I have some sympathy for him. This kind of physique of being shot when lying in a pit is really miserable.”

Chen Ke also saw Xing Entertainment issued an apology announcement and had some doubts in his heart. Xing Entertainment was not without means to shirk the matter this time. How could they apologize so honestly? It simply didn’t fit in with the kind of shameless style of their company, ah.

He just wanted to take out his phone to contact the company, but his phone rang first.

This call was from the head of the ‘Cultivation’ crew, who told them to go sign the cooperation contract as soon as possible.

After Chen Ke hung up the phone, he came back to his senses. The male number one that many great gods in the circle had scrambled for was so easily obtained by Gongxi Qiao?

He looked back at Gongxi Qiao, who was still filming, with some disbelief.
